just posting for a friend:
-------------------------------------------
Ok, I did my spring cleaning on my pc and wiped/formatted my HD and installed win xp. After tracing an install bug down to the xp installer not liking my gf2mx vid card and hanging during the first reboot of the install I have everything up and running, but counterstrike is giving me a prob. I don't play it quite as much as I used to but about a month ago I noticed i would refresh the servers and everything would go fine. Then when I would click to join a server with say a 40 ping when I would get in the server my ping would be over 500. This has happened with EVERY servber I have tried to join. I thought my win98 was hosed and causing the prob, but it is still doing this with the freash install of xp. Any ideas?
